Feeding wildlife, when practiced with care, can be a very rewarding and educational experience for the entire family. But it is important to remember, especially during the cold and snowy winter, that remaining consistent is critical to the health of every herd and flock. Attracting birds and wildlife with food can have an effect on their feeding and movement patterns which means that it may cost them precious energy to get to the new source of food; if that supply is suddenly cut-off, they may not have enough energy to find a new source.

If you are planning to be away, even for just a few days, be sure to have a neighbor check and refill your feeders as needed.

Remember that you can find all of your wildlife feeding supplies, as well as advice and information from the knowledgeable staff here at West Lebanon Feed & Supply. From bird feeders, seed mixes, and suets to wildlife grains and deer pellets, you're sure to find something for all of your furry and feathered friends.
